Prop shaft options - which fits which?

I'm weighing up the diff options for my project and need some help on the prop shaft options... To quickly sum up this question, is there a stock prop combination that would allow a w58 to be installed with a 'Big' diff?

 

I would also like to know if any of the following statements are incorrect:

- There are regular shafts and the heavier, thicker ones that came with the big diff and UK cars

- The are only two options for the 'diff' end of the prop shaft: the 'thin' prop and the 'thick' prop

- There are multiple options for the 'gearbox' end of the prop shaft: w58 (thin), a340 (thin and thick), v160 (thick), v161 (thin)

 

I've attempted to list the stock options below where:

 

 

I'm finding it a bit difficult to explain, but hopefully it makes sense

 

Hopefully someone out there can help advise!

I know its not directly related, but rear half of TT prop (Big Diff) fits front half of both Lexus LS400 and Lexus Soarer, so should fit the supra options right?! If it is any use to you, I used a company in Heathrow to shorten the front half of the LS400 Prop, cost about 120 quid. So there for if needed I'm sure they could splice two front half props for the same money.
